You might show your trainees
http://www.eBLAST.com/
and point out how much of librarians work has already been done on the Net
and how much they could therefore show to their trainees;
you might let them search for sites that give pointers on how to evaluate
netsites (and have them discover that this is indeed the "real" librarians
stuff and that they do not have to this all over again... but please add to
all these marvellous sites like:
http://www.sau.edu/CWIS/Internet/Wild/Library/libindex.htm#great

you might even consider giving the trainees all the fun of finding out what
they can find on the WWW... go to a good and nice engine and let them enter
their searchterms.. let's see what turns up! (lots of goodies!)
and then discuss how to support their trainees/students to find this out for
themselves...
Sorry, I might seen frivolous but I do think that if you have one half day of
instruction time:
start out with one hour of letting your trainees find out what is out there
on the WWW; 1/2 hour of discussion time : what sites would we like to point
our trainees/students to... and finish off with  1 1/2 hour of collecting and
putting together good and wonderful sites like;
http://vlib.stanford.edu/Overview.html
